I wish my car radio had a 30-second rewind feature.
In a communications class in college, the last day of class was reserved for acceptance speeches for pretend awards given out. I was awarded “best smile.” I never took it seriously, but when I talk to women I’ve gone out on dates with via an app, several have told me one reason they swiped right is because of my smile. Go figure.
I’m doing what I can to live life, but I still feel like I’m just surviving it, and not living it. The ex has easily moved on. I’m told research says the one who files for divorce has checked out long ago, so they basically have a head start in starting a new life.
One of my more interesting dates was one with a golf professional. After our date, she sent me a message thanking me for picking up brunch and for the “wonderful” conversation. I think the use of that word is a good thing. But what keeps me from allowing it to go to my head is that word was also used by the girl I took out before her in much the same way. However, I didn’t want to continue the relationship. But, I would like to go out with this golf pro again.
I miss being in a committed relationship. Some may enjoy the single life, but I didn’t choose this, it was forced upon me.
Even money wise, arming Ukraine is a cost effective way to deal with Russia.
I haven’t kept up with the drama surrounding the racist comments from the creator of the Dilbert comic strip. But it doesn’t affect me. I never liked it to begin with. But I do read The Far Side every morning.
Skip this bullet point if you are easily offended by curse words… It’s Monday, so you may be feeling blah. Maybe you need to take better care of yourself. If you do, give this self-care website a try.
Nearly 30 percent of all work happened at home in January, six times the rate in 2019, according to WFH Research, a data-collection project. In Washington and other large urban centers, the share of remote work is closer to half.
A federal judge could be invited to stay at a wealthy entrepreneur’s vacation home without ever being required to disclose that trip and the value of it. It’s a so-called hospitality loophole, as Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse has put it, which he’s advocated to close in an effort to avoid potential conflicts of interest for federal judges, including Supreme Court justices, who make consequential decisions that shape American law and life.
Saint Sarkis Armenian Church, located in the north Dallas suburb of Carrollton, has received the most votes in our poll for US Building of the Year 2022. Designed by David Hotson Architect, the church reaches far back in time and thousands of miles across the globe to link itself with Armenian traditions and people.
Employers can no longer include a broadly written confidentiality clause that requires you to keep mum about the terms of your severance agreement. And they can no longer include a broadly written non-disparagement clause that prohibits you from discussing the terms and conditions of your employment with third parties.
Little more than a week before the big state tournament in Nebraska, three members of the Morrill High School cheer squad quit—but that didn’t stop the last remaining member, Katrina Kohel, from competing. “I want to go to state, and I will cheer by myself,” the senior told her coach, according to Omaha World-Herald. It was the first time anyone had competed solo, and spectators from other teams even applauded for Kohel. She finished eighth out of 12 teams in her division—which was better than her school had done competing at full strength in the previous two years.
Men in their 20s are more likely than women in their 20s to be romantically uninvolved, sexually dormant, friendless and lonely. They stand at the vanguard of an epidemic of declining marriage, sexuality and relationships that afflicts all of young America.
As tractors became more sophisticated over the past two decades, the big manufacturers allowed farmers fewer options for repairs. Rather than hiring independent repair shops, farmers have increasingly had to wait for company-authorized dealers to arrive. Getting repairs could take days, often leading to lost time and high costs.
Truly, there are THOUSANDS of Southern Baptist churches with female associate pastors … who are called "directors" performing the EXACT same function as Saddleback's female pastors. Good luck with that, @SBCExecComm.
Abbott, in an interview with The Texas Tribune, said he would be traveling the state to make the case directly to voters, particularly in rural areas. Such a program could redirect taxpayer money away from public schools as parents use that money to pay for their children’s private school, online schooling or private tutors.

DaughterGeeding had her first softball scrimmage of the year yesterday evening. She started at right field and was at bat one time. She swung on the first pitch, made good contact, but got thrown out.
It may be easy for my ex to attend our children games with me there, but it’s very hard for me to attend games when she’s in attendance. I don’t know what it’s like to be myself. If I were myself, I’d be interacting and making jokes with her. But since I fear she will call the cops if I even look at her wrong, I feel I have to sit by myself and act reserve and non-emotional.
I asked her the other day when this fiasco first started, why did she request full custody of the kids as opposed to joint custody. She said she didn’t remember and don’t recall having her lawyer file for full custody. That seems like a pretty big thing to remember. I told her the kids deserve to have both parents in their lives. It’s just one of the many ways she shows no respect for me being the father of our kids.
This whole thing is so tough to go through, and I only have seven more years of this Sisyphus like ordeal. I now understand why many fathers simply leave and don’t partake in their children’s lives. I wish I better understood the saying, “One must imagine Sisyphus happy” I’ve looked at several sources and remain just as confused. Recently, I ordered a Sisyphus print to hang in RentalHouseGeeding.
As part of the state’s biennial budget process, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has called on the state legislature to provide $350 million to create and fund a Texas Space Commission for the next two years.
Fran Tarkenton claims he invented the quarterback scramble.
I invented scrambling. The two best quarterbacks this year played against each other in the Super Bowl. They're both scramblers, and that started with me! pic.twitter.com/6bmwuHuoE6
